hummingbird cake
When Todd got a bundt pan, he tried all sorts of new cake recipes. I'm not exactly sure why this is called hummingbird cake, but this is a really good, moist cake. Our former babysitter loves it, and says it reminds her of her childhood in Chicago.
3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1t baking soda
1/2t white salt
